    CDs for Boiler Operators

    Boiler Fundamentals Training Modules

    Our Boiler Operator CD's are easy to use anytime, anywhere. No special software is needed; the program runs in Microsoft Power Point. All of the CD's are about 15 to 20 minutes long but the user controls the actual speed.

    Each CD covers a complete procedure from beginning to end and answers the questions what, why, when, and where. Each main point on the CD has a short video that further explains the procedure. The CD finishes with a test covering all the major points.

    Every plant should have a set on hand. Perfect for new employee orientation, refreshers, and as a supplement to your procedures or emergency response.

    Interactive CD-ROM Courseware

    The interactive CD-ROM training products cover topics in Safety, Health and Regulatory Compliance. The CD-ROMs are ideal for employees who are geographically dispersed and allow them to receive training on their own personal computers, on demand, anytime and at their own pace. Using a Training Management System that comes with the training courseware, employers can define and set up the curriculum, establish log in procedures and collect and generate tracking reports on employee performance information. This information can in turn be used in making decisions about employees' career development plans as well as compensation packages.
